You mean it "could" cruise faster. I've never had a -200 above .78 in level flight. And anything above ISA+0 it's .74 or less. The -700 will do .82 (limited to .83 in RVSM) and the -900 will do .85 (limited to .82 in RVSM) in level flight at any ISA.
Not bragging, just making sure the facts are straight.
